The base Soul LX has a perky powertrain with a 2.0-liter motor that produces 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. This small SUV has an EPA-estimated gas mileage of 27 MPG in the city, 33 MPG on the freeway, and 30 MPG combined, so it’s an ideal option for running errands, commuting to work, and taking weekend trips. 

The LX model comes with 16-inch steel wheels with full covers to protect the wheel from damage. Convenient roof rack mounting points ensure this small SUV is prepared for any adventure since these mounting points enable the installation of Kia roof attachments and other accessories to secure items like bikes, roof carriers, and more. 

In-Cabin Features

The Soul has a quiet and comfortable cabin environment with rear privacy glass to shield back-seat passengers from view and solar control glass on the front windshield and front windows to reduce heat build-up from the sun. The rear seat can fold with a 40/60 split in case you need extra cargo room. The LX model can seat five passengers. 

The LX comes with an eight-inch infotainment touchscreen and compatibility with mirrored smartphone apps when you sync your phone via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The LX has a six-speaker audio system with standard HD radio access. This model supports wireless Bluetooth connectivity for multiple devices to stream music or make hands-free phone calls. 

Kia Drive Wise Features

The base LX model comes with an assortment of technologies to help keep you centered in your lane, such as the Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Following Assist systems. The Lane Departure Warning system uses a camera to monitor the position of your vehicle within visible lane markers to identify when you drift outside of your lane without using the turn signal. 

Your Kia Soul can also help prevent collisions with features like Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist, which can identify other vehicles with sensors on the rear bumper and can automatically hit the emergency brakes to prevent a collision. The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system can also independently engage the brakes when an impact with another car, bicyclist, or pedestrian is identified. 

The Kia Soul continues to be one of the most popular compact SUVs in the Kia lineup thanks to a selection of practical features that keep you safe while you’re on the road. Get in touch with DeMontrond Kia in Houston, TX to book a test drive today.
